The Big Tidy Up by Norah Smaridge
by Heather L.
(Mt. Juliet, TN)
This story is about a little girl who does not keep her room clean!
A wonderful lead-in to the importance of keeping our classroom tidy and particularly keeping centers cleaned correctly.
We follow up with a class graph "Is your bedroom CLEAN or MESSY?" and this hangs in our room during parent night -- leading to many funny reactions from parents!
Beautiful, brilliant pictures and sweet rhyming cadence make this book extremely catchy to children.
